On the 25th Of September, 1886, 9. G.
Twichell, Justice of the Peace of Santa
Monica, committed one s. G. M orris to
the county Jail on the charge of"'burg'
larry in the first degree" The man was
arrested upon the complaint of one
Frank Doyle, on information and belief,
for having entered his house with the
intent to commit larceny. District At
torney Go. M. Holton filed an informa.
tion against Morris ON the 4th of Octo-
Der. charging him with burglary. Since
that time the defendant has been pris.
oner in the county Jail. Yesterday Dis
trict Attorney Patton moved the Supe-
rior Court to dismiss the information and
discharge the defendant upon the ground
that there is not sufficient evidence to
warrant prosecution, and because the
defendant is in very precarious condi-
tion of health and liable to die, and on
the further ground that he has been in
Jail for four months, Judge Cheney dis.
charged the prisoner.

J.R. Snodgrass was his name as II
appears on the pay roll. Being good
natured, companionable fellow ne went
by the nick name of "Riley," for short,
and this, in nutshell, is how 1t all came
about: 1t appears that not many months
ago Riley was living in pennsylvania
with his charming and affeoiionate wife
and two small children. SO Tar as is
known counubial life went smoothly for
aome time. when discord entered and
Riley. forsaking his family, set out to
seek his fortune beyond the Mississippi.
He made his debut in Texas, the Lone
Star State. and fell desperately in love
with fair maiden. Laying siege to her
heart he suec seeded in wi inning her Of.
fections and shortly mar ried her. not
even writing his first wife that he had
met his second and only love-"
With the second Mrs. Snodgrass,
Riley took the advice of that sage old
philosopher, Horace Greeley, and made
his appearance in San Diego. He was
q good machiuist and blacksmith and
readily found employment at remunera.
tive wages from the Coronado Company.
Near the landing at Coronado bis wife
kept the boarding house and all went
"merry as marriage bell" until the
first Mrs. Snodgrass learned OF her
faithless plrtner's whereabouts, and
then she began correspondence with
the second Mrs. Snodgrass. which re-
suited in making the climate OF the
boarding house entirely too torrid tor
good natured but wicked Riley. On
Saturday night he packed his gripsack,
unseen, and quietly stole . way, perhaps
to Utah. h.-San Diego Sun.

Lately an attack of measles has been
playing "a havoc among the Yumas
across the Colorado river, and nightly the
red glare of the funeral pyre lights up the
horizon all round the mountainous chain
encircling their reservation The scent
of burning flesh can be sensibly perceived
in the atmosphere by any one in the city
who has his olfactories exposed at the
time. But with the lead dies every living
thing belonging to the deceased. All
other property likewise perishes. This
obliteration of all earthly possessions, of
course makes the Yumas the poorest In
race in America, and always will I'M
less they are in some way restrained in
the exercise of their foolish custom The
belief is hat this immolation will appease
the owls, the spirits Of their dead, who
will visit them forever in m%ournful boot
inGs unless the holocaust is made in all
its hideous forms, without shade or varia-
ton from that known to their fathers

violating the American frontier, she has
for some reason entirely personal to the
parties sentenced, inflicted the death pen
atty upon entirely inadequate grounds and
for an offense not deserving of such rigor.
The popular feeling, which is antagonist
ic to the United States, would scarcely
permit such severity, even were the pres
ent administration, on the eve of a presi-
dental election, SO foolish as to exer-
else it. The report, without further con-
6rmation, is unworthy of belief.

PARALLEL.

Earth sings hsr parallels of loss and gain
In boldest speech.
Yet heights sublime which spirits shall attain
She cannot reach.
Aerial whispers float DER land and sea
at doth not yet appear what we shall be-"
Her royal puppies and her crowns OF gold,
Her white attire.
The sceptsred lilies which her summers hold
With flames Attire
AL fail TO show the glory we shall sec
1T doth not yet appear what we shall be-"
Who from unsightly bulb or slender root
Could guess Alright
rhe glory OF the flower, the fern, the fruit.
In summers heightr
Through tremulous shadows voices call TO me-
ut doth no; yet appear what we shall be-"
Triumphant guesses from the seer and sage
Through shadows dart,
And tender meanings on the poets page
Console the heart.
o songs prophetici though sweet ARE ye,
'It doth not yet appear what ye shall be-"

NINE states hold general elections this
year, and they are SO divided in political
complexion as to afford a fair one of
the sentiment of the country. The Demo
cratic administration will receive endorse
ment from any gain which that party may
receive. and corresponding condemnation
from its losses. The states are Kentucky,
which holds its election on Aug. l, and
Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts,, Mississi-
ppi, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and
Virginia, in all of which the election takes
place on Nov. s. OF these, Iowa, Ohio
and Pennsylvania may be conceded as
Republican, while Kentucky, Maryland,
Mississippi and Virginia may as certainly
be claimed as Democratic. The contest
will be close in New York. where both
parties may be expected tie put forth their
full strength. with all the probabilities in
favor of Democratic success, while Repub-
bean discontents afford the Democracy
more than a mere fighting chance in
Massachusetts,.

THERE is a way to use the treasury sur
plus which would benefit the whole
country without giving special advantage
to n section and to which no cayil could
be made on the ground of applying ma
tional funds for the benefit of a state. Let
the suggestions Of Secretary Lamar be
followed and a system of engineering
works be inaugurated for the irrigation of
the vast area of desert lands in the terri
tories, that settlers Oh the public lands
may be afforded the means Of retaining
them. The increase in value of the lands
would help to meet the expense and the
country can well spare the difference.

A WHOLLY sensational story comes by
the roundabout way of California that an
American citizen visiting France has been
seized and forced to serve in the army,
the very number and station of the regi-
ment being given. IL is not likely that
any man entitled to American protection
would have submitted without an appeal
TO some diplomatic or commercial repre-
sentative OF the United States.

A BILL now before the Pennsylvania
legislature proposes to give to a married
woman the absolute control of her own
property. Nearly half the states of the
Union have already abolished the unjust
discrimination Of the common law on this
subject, but the East. with all its boasted
enlightenment, does not take kindly to
the reform, the exception to this rule
being the state of New York.

A RUMoR Of Parnell's death was circu-
lated yesterday in the lobby of the house
OF commons, but was speedily denied by a
member who had trustworthy information
to the contrary. Frequently in such ru-
mors, the wish is parent to the
thought"

O'BRIEN's mission to Canada seems to
be a personal crusade against the governor
general, who is reputed one of the most
cruel and uncompromisiDg of Irish land
lords. Perhaps hat qualities him all the
better to represent a Tory ministry.
